Delete

To delete an existing library you need to execute a DELETE request against the /libraries/:id endpoint.

The id uniquely identifies the library and you can find it in the create library response.

This is a destructive operation which cannot be undone! If the deleted library is in-use -> all opened files from it will be closed and users will lose access to the library. All files and folders in the library will be permanently deleted.

String TEAM_ID = "YOUR_TEAM_ID";
String DEVELOPER_KEY = "YOUR_DEVELOPER_KEY";
String authorizationHeader = "Bearer " + Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString((TEAM_ID + ":" + DEVELOPER_KEY).getBytes());
//Put your library id here - this value is just an example
String libraryId = "45d125d8-bac9-43a5-a6a8-311a5433239d"";

HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder()
  .DELETE()
  .uri(new URI("https://api.digitalsamba.com/api/v1/libraries/" + libraryId))
  .header("Authorization", authorizationHeader)
  .build();

HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();
HttpResponse<String> response = client.send(request, BodyHandlers.ofString());

System.out.println("Status code: " + response.statusCode());
System.out.println("Body: " + response.body());

Response (204 -> No Content)

Response is empty because the library was deleted and there is no content to return.
